Sun Shangzhong gritted his teeth and said that the situation was urgent at this moment and he could not delay time. He had to break the chain formation above as soon as possible.

When he bowed to the King of Chu, the King of Chu nodded faintly. Sun Shangzhong felt tight. He knew that his position in the King of Chu was shaken at this moment. After all, the King of Chu trusted him because he believed in his ability. However, if this kind of thing happens now, his importance in the King of Chu would be greatly reduced.

Wurong is the most important emperor's family, and being with the king is like a tiger. Sun Shangzhong finally found a king to assist, and he didn't want to give up just like that.

The most important thing for emperors is the value of utilization. The emperor only values ​​capable people. Before, the King of Chu was able to resist public opinion and spend a lot of manpower and material resources to build the Tairu Academy that covers dozens of miles in a short period of time. The most important reason is that he has a cultivation level in the earthly realm and comes from the central region, which is of great help to the development of Chu.

Relatively speaking, it is second to assist the King of Chu to break through the fairyland. It is not difficult to break through the fairyland with the King of Chu’s talent, it is just a matter of time.

When he came to Chu State, he gave him all the status, the academy, and the King of Chu. When Chu State needs him now, he naturally has to stand up and show his value. This is unavoidable!

Sun Shangzhong calmed down his state of mind. For Confucian scholars, the state of mind was very important and could greatly affect the degree of their strength.

The milky white literary spirit emanated from Sun Shangzhong's body, forming halos around his body.

Yingying's literary spirit is nine feet tall and emits Linlin's waves.

With a wave of his long sleeves, Sun Shangzhong turned into a stream of light and rushed into the sky.

The King of Chu put his hands behind him and silently stared at Sun Shangzhong's departure back, as well as the black and gray chains burning in the sky, outlining an extremely spectacular and magnificent scene.

Unfortunately, this spectacular scene is not a wonder of heaven and earth, but a formation arranged by an enemy who knows where.

Crossing the chains that rushed into the sky, Sun Shangzhong was still wary of the chains' counterattack, just like His Majesty the King of Chu was attacked before, but Sun Shangzhong was surprised to find that these chains did not attack him.

He raised his right hand and slashed it hard with one palm. The literary energy condensed from his hand into a white giant knife and slashed it down.

The slash made a violent roar on the chain, bursting out dazzling sparks. The chain swayed violently, and the green flames were also dispersed a lot. However, there was no damage on the surface of the chain, and the black and gray chains made a sonorous and low echo.

After Sun Shangzhong continued to attack the chain several times, he found that he could not break through the chain's defense at all. He frowned and looked up at the heavy mist wrapped in endless black fog.

Both ends of the chain extend into the black fog, and I don’t know where it leads, but as of now, the chain cannot be destroyed directly, so you can only try it in the black fog.

Taking a deep breath, Sun Shangzhong's body's literary energy surrounded it into a circular barrier to wrap it in it. The white barrier surface has a few words that rotate around the barrier. These are all manifestations of Sun Shangzhong's own Confucian and Taoist rules outside.

Different Confucian scholars have different "paths" and the scriptures reflected outside are also different.

As he rushed into the black fog, the surrounding environment became darker and darker, and finally he was completely wrapped in the black fog, with a visible distance of less than one meter.

With the only visible distance, Sun Shangzhong kept moving along the direction of the chain.

The sound of the wind whistled through his ears, and the black fog was filled with a strong cold air. Sun Shangzhong felt that the yin energy around him was getting heavier and heavier.

The turquoise green flames burning on the surface of the chain became the only lighting in the black fog, and the turquoise green flames reflected on Sun Shangzhong's cheek.

A camp far east, Li Si opened his eyes and smiled faintly, "The fish is taken to the bait."

At the same time, the sky changed dizzy, and countless chains moved in the black fog.

Sun Shangzhong could not see the changes around him clearly, and could only feel the drastic changes around him.

Chu Du, the King of Chu looked up at the sky. The black chains above Sun Shangzhong changed drastically soon after entering the black fog. The chains completely disappeared into the black fog like giant pythons, constantly winding and strangling, emitting a strong murderous intent.

At this moment, the King of Chu finally understood that the formation was arranged at the beginning only to target one person - Sun Shangzhong!

Sun Shangzhong's expression changed in the fog. He knew that some formations were extremely terrifying, and formation masters were often able to arrange a shocking killing formation to kill the enemy higher than the level.

He did not dare to stay where he was. Sun Shangzhong turned into a stream of light and rushed down, but he had not seen the ground for a whole stick of incense. Sun Shangzhong stopped and looked solemn. This formation had the ability to interfere with space!

In the place where Sun Shangzhong could not see, chains that were constantly traversing in the void moved crossfully, as if countless black pythons were constantly swimming, and finally turned into a complex cage to wrap Sun Shangzhong in it.

"It's a pity that Sun Shangzhong's cultivation is much higher than mine, otherwise he would have been strangled." A hint of regret appeared in Li Si's eyes.

The next moment, the black fog continued to shrink, and finally formed an extremely large black ball above Chudu, with cold chains sprouting from time to time on the surface of the black ball.

"Confucianism and Taoism emphasize governing the country with 'benevolence', but according to my opinion, you are far from being 'benevolence'." Li Si's cold voice echoed in the black ball.

Sun Shangzhong had murderous intent in his eyes, and he was completely wrapped in black fog and had no idea that there had been a drastic change outside.

"Which force did you send it? It took a lot of effort to kill me." Sun Shangzhong sneered.

"No, I'm not trying to kill you." The man in the black fog chuckled and said lightly.

"I just want you to recognize your own way!" the man in the black fog said in a slight temptation.

When Sun Shangzhong heard this, he was furious. This person was ready to mess with his heart. This was a more serious hatred than trying to kill him!

"Haha, am I wrong? You follow Confucian rules on the surface, but you don't know that the Tao you follow is not the Tao of Confucianism at all, so you think the Tao is wrong from the beginning!"

Naturally, Sun Shangzhong would not be moved in a few words, and even regarded Li Si's words as nonsense. At this moment, Sun Shangzhong responded casually and perfunctorily, and his main energy was to find flaws and strive to find opportunities to fight out.

"I know you don't believe it, so I'm going to let you truly feel your true Tao." After saying that, countless chains in the black fog let out a sharp sound, and the next moment they all burst into black light and rushed towards Sun Shangzhong.

"Remember four words, Confucianism outside and law inside." The voice in the black fog sneered.

Sun Shangzhong had no time to avoid it and could not disperse it, because this black light was not an attack at all, but rather a existence similar to rules, which could help people understand something close to the rules.

The black fog in the sky also dissipated, and Sun Shangzhong only felt the pain in his mind as if it was about to explode.

With a muffled groan, Sun Shangzhong fell from above Chudu.

Someone rushed up to catch Sun Shangzhong and brought him back to treat him. Chu Tianxiong directly ordered the imperial physician to come and treat Sun Jijiu's injuries. Sun Shangzhong solved the strange chains above Chudu and also lifted the seal formation, which made great contributions.

At this moment, the heavens and man in Sun Shangzhong's mind were fighting. At first, Sun Shangzhong didn't believe in the nonsense of the man in the black fog at all, but at this moment, after deeply touching the power represented by the black rules in his head, Sun Shangzhong's heart almost shattered!

There is nothing else, because he felt the very familiar rules in the power represented by the black rules. Then after Sun Shangzhong's bitter comparison, he found that a large part of his Tao was really similar to this black rules! This power is familiar and unfamiliar. What is familiar with his Tao is very similar to it. What is strange is that this is not the Confucian "benevolence" Tao at all!

Have I been wrong in my journey over the years?!

What I am not following is the "benevolent" way, so what is the way I have been struggling to stick to for so many years!

Sun Shangzhong was almost collapsed. You should know that insisting on his belief that he had come to the north was the way he insisted on.

As the saying goes, it is enough to hear the Tao in the morning and die in the evening, but what if the Tao that you have to pursue for is always wrong?!

At this moment, Sun Shangzhong fell into this kind of devilish madness.

Sun Shangzhong suddenly thought of the four words in the black fog, "Confucianism outside and law inside". What does this mean? Confucianism refers to the Confucianism and Taoism he pursued before. What about the law? What is this law?

What is this method!!!

Sun Shangzhong was almost crazy.

......

"Confucianism outside and law inside are covered with the outer skin of Confucian 'benevolence', but in fact, what they practice is the fundamental rules of 'law'. Then Sun Shangzhong is such a corrupt Confucianism! He thought he was following the benevolent path of Confucianism, but in fact he believed in the law's principles in his bones. Hahaha, I have to say that this is really a kind of irony. Not only China, but also in this continent." Li Si had a sarcastic smile on his face.

Li Si was not only referring to Sun Shangzhong, but even the so-called Confucian scholars in many dynasties in China actually followed the rules of Confucianism outside and law inside. On the surface, they were benevolent in Confucianism, but in fact they followed the various rules of the Legalists in their bones, because the Legalists valued rules, systems, and kingly law!

Naturally, later dynasties could not use benevolence and righteousness to govern the country. Emperor Wu of Han abolished all schools of thought and respected Confucianism, and only left Confucianism on the surface, but in fact he really could? He really dared to use Confucianism to govern the country alone?
